Rustic Mushroom Bread Pudding
"The air is full of spices." One of my favourite lines from the 1995 film version of Sense and Sensibility and it rings true in this house these last four days. It's all chopped herbs, cracked pepper and sizzling butter! The electric oven is covered in snow out in the...
